The house needs much more work than Meg ever expected but it has one wonderful surprise, an apple orchard. Meg decides to stick around in Granville to see if she can make the orchard prosper and finds she really enjoys the town, the residents and the house with all it has to offer. 

In &quot;A Killer Crop&quot;, Meg&apos;s mother shows up in Granville very unexpectedly and at the busiest time for Meg, it is time to harvest her first crop of apples. It turns out Meg&apos;s mom, Elizabeth, came to the area at the request of an old friend. Sadly the old friend ends up dead shortly after meeting with Elizabeth which makes her the likely one to have last seen him alive and may even be his killer. Meg is sure her mother is keeping secrets but she is definitely not a murderer and vows to &quot;pick&quot; out the true killer. Not to mention a very famous poet may be involved in this case more than anyone can believe. 

I LOVED IT!!!!! 

I read this whole series this past week and this is a perfect series to read that way because each book picks up right where the last one leaves off. Also while this series fits the definition of a cozy mystery, &quot;no graphic violence, no profanity, explicit sex, amateur sleuth, eccentric supporting characters, etc.&quot; this series is so much more. I have found this series to be very educational. I now know more about apple orchards, pest control and Emily Dickinson and learned them in a very fun way through this fictional series. The second book in the series got a little bound up in the education so that was my least favorite book of the series, but I still would say &quot;I LIKED IT****&quot; 


This book &quot;A Killer Crop&quot; was by far the best, but that usually is the case with series, each book evolves into the next, you get to know the characters, the setting, the author&apos;s writing style and each book is better than the last. It also left me wanting to learn more about the poet that called Amherst, Massachusetts her home. Details were woven into the story that left me wanting more. I also want more Meg Corey, more Granville, more apples!!! &quot;Bitter Harvest&quot; the next Orchard Mystery comes out in August 2011 and I can&apos;t wait!!!
